A.N. Hello you wonderful people! Sorry it has been a while but here is a new chapter with a bit of mother son time. Enjoy and please review!


She woke up to see light streaming through the vast windows and instantly recognised the figure standing in front of them. It was Tony, her Tony, holding a small bundle of blankets containing their newborn son. She smiled to herself as Tony quietly mumbled to his son, pointing things out that could be seen, saying how one day he would take Robert to all these different places. It truely amazed her to see him be so gentle and how easily he seemed to take to being a father but it only made her love him more than she already did. He turned and saw her awake, smiling to her as he walked over to her bedside and sat on the edge next to her.

"Morning gorgeous" he said with a smile before kissing her temple. The then mumbled to his son "Shall we go to mummy now?". It was at that moment that the newborn started to stir from his sleep and started crying, his little fist lightly hitting Tony's chest.


Pepper was pulled from her sleep by that same crying only to find that she had fallen asleep on the ridiculously large couch with Robert in her arms, currently crying and squirming slightly. She carefully stood up with the infant in her arms and bounced him slightly while heading to the kitchen, in desperate need of her morning coffee and in search of some food for her son. Of course, the spoon that she found, along with some baby food, was Iron Man themed and Pepper had to ask him where on Earth he had managed to find it when he returned home. She sighed slightly as she fed Robert " Is your daddy always flying off to go save the world? How did I cope for so long?".

She chuckled to herself at just how messy the little boy had managed to get while eating then wiped him clean before finishing her coffee. She picked him up out of the high chair then wandered back into the lounge as she wondered what they could do to pass the time until Tony returned. She smiled to herself as she glanced at the very clean, white walls then at the infant in her arms.

"We definitely need to brighten this place up, don't you think?" The morning was spent decorating the walls in multicoloured hand prints and smudges of paint by both Pepper and Robert with a clear set of prints away from the rest with their names above and a space for Tony to make his mark on the wall.

After washing all the paint off, Pepper put Robert down for a nap and just sat watching him for a moment, still trying to get her head around the fact that he was her son. After a nap, for both of them, they ended up watching episodes of Scooby Doo as JARVIS had informed Pepper that "Master Stark enjoys it. However, I believe Mr Stark enjoys it much more and uses Master Stark as an excuse for him to watch the show." Pepper couldn't help but laugh, trust Tony to use his son as an excuse to watch a children's programme despite the fact that he would watch it when Robert was asleep.

When Tony arrived home late that evening he wandered into the lounge to see Pepper fast asleep with their son asleep in her arms, Scooby Doo still playing on the TV. As he looked around the room he spotted his once white wall that was now covered in handprints of two sizes before spotting the ones with two names as labels and a space below his name. He couldn't help but smile. He found the paint and dipped his palms in before placing his hands on the wall underneath his name, leaving his hand prints on the wall, completing the family set. Having washed his hands he went back into the living room and pulled a blanket over Pepper and Robert before clearing away all the toys after he nearly stepped on a musical toy (which later had its batteries removed).

A.N Sorry it is a little short again.
